Default B&R Racing Sprint Car O.I.F.F.

Here's a wonderful Sprint car from B&R Racing in Colorado. It all started back in 1989 when I met Brent and his Dad Roger. They used to hand craft these kickass chassis with a eye for the scale detail and the performance of a F1 car. Not sure if there is any of these left out there but it's a treat to still have one around. It's based off a gold-pan RC-10 with the six gear tranny, yeah old school.

Just started a complete restoration from the ground up a few day's ago. This will take a little time but please stay tuned for the completion, it'll be worth it.

First, clean off the old paint with the bead blast. Second, look at it for a few hours a night and blow smoke at it. I have some damn good memories with this one...

Thanks Brent, this builds for you.

It's a work of art. I've been looking at it and can't start wrenching for some reason.

I remember racing with him back in the day. Does he have any neon yellow scuffs on his? :-P

I doubt that I will ever take this over 15mph. Instead of oval the IRON CHEF and I decided to just have a Sprint Car parade next spring.

I remember that car Jay...

Brent, you, Roger, who else ran them? Phil picone (?) something like that.

Yours didn't do 15mph back in the day!

Phil York too I remember a few others but not names.

Yeah this went about 8.5mph with a fully tuned modified motor and 7cells. I could never get out of the B-main, maybe it was those jumps in the infield that I kept launching off every lap.
